Atlas Helium BC Snowshoes are the newest in Atlas' backcountry line and, just as the name suggests, they're the lightest, too. Made for steeper ascents where sure-footed traction is a must, these snowshoes feature lightweight Helium decking, rugged Helium BC crampons, and Pack-Flat bindings that accommodate mountaineering and snowboard boots, in case you want a little rip after the climb.
Helium BC Crampon – Designed and tested to meet the standards of alpine adventurers, the BC is the lightest crampon in the Helium series. Crafted from tempered steel, this crampon’s tangs provide the bite needed in variable snow conditions. The BC crampon also maintains a low profile to compliment the pack-flat binding.
Helium Decking – The deck of the all-new Helium series provides the foundation to make these the lightest composite snowshoes available. The unique louver design sheds snow to keep them lightweight, while also creating traction.
Aluminum Traction Rails – Curved traction rails set in close to the foot provide sidehill traction and stability.
Articulation – The Pivot Limiter sits lower in the decking, rooting your strides to the ground.
Rounded Edge – The uniquely designed rounded edge of the Helium deck allows the snowshoe to settle into the snow instead of diving to one side or the other like most composite snowshoes.
Rockered Footbed – Allows your foot to settle into a comfortable position in the binding for a natural, rolling gait.
19° Heel Lift – On steep climbs, calf muscles tire quickly and traction decreases when your foot matches the slope angle. The heel lift bar on Atlas snowshoes eases fatigue when climbing and ensures better grip when the terrain gets steep.
Louvers – Shed snow and create integrated aft-deck traction that keeps you moving in the right direction.
Aft-Deck Fin – Atlas put a fin under the tail to keep the Helium tracking straight when the snow gets deep.
Pack-Flat™ Binding – The Pack-Flat™ binding accommodates larger mountaineering & snowboard boots, featuring a single urethane z-strap that holds the foot securely and is fully field-replaceable with the included BC Utility Strap. Designed to pack flat when not in use.
